Hmmmmm…. my health insurance premiums have tripled and Kaiser is making $1 Billion/ quarter? Thank you Obamacare!
Zero to do with Obamacare.
Jared,Obamacare has driven people to Kaiser because of the high premiums from other insurers.
So Obamacare mandates that you purchase their product which now costs 2-3x more than it did before the mandate and their profits soar, yet the profits have nothing to do with the Obamacare mandate? I may not be the grand pooba of economics, but this one is a no brainer.
It’s called free enterprise. The more sick people join a health care provider, the more their costs go up. Millions come in,millions of $s go out. Watch the others follow suit. Obama created a monster!?
hmm, what are the medical professional’s profits
